Show I, ill Alfa Hourly Bore Active Driving for Connections With Lead Channel, While Following New Fissure in Albion. Conditions nt Uio property of the Albion Al-bion Mining company. Alio, continue to improve as the campaign underground progrosscs, said Manager William Hatfield Hat-field on his return from the camp, and that It hafl not begun the active production produc-tion of hlgh-grado copper, gold and silver ore already is because other connections with other ore-bearing channels are being be-ing sought. From the 2500-foot station In the lower tunnel a crosscut Is now being be-ing run to Intercept tho lead-bearing channel from which management was driven by water, and with this connection connec-tion Is promiocd the present month. From tho station at 2550 feet In tho tunnel tho management Is now following up a 11s-aure, 11s-aure, in which there Is Ave feet of milling ore exposed, while heading for the contact con-tact and for something with which It may start, to the furnaces without resorting to concentration. Nothing Is being done at present on tho main ore body, which was crosscut for twenty-six feet and raised on for thirty, nor will thero bo until con-rectlon con-rectlon with the lead-silver ores has been effected. Of the camp, Manager Hatfield says It Is becoming hourly more active, and that ever 300 persons aro now employed. Each of the mills operated respectively by the Colunbus Con. and Continental companies com-panies Is running steadily, and with results re-sults that ought soon to reflect themselves them-selves in dividends, while from the mines Is coming a larger volume of oro than at any period in the history of the camp. I Iho day's arrivals from camp, gays the consummation of several Important deal& that are now In progress will add materially materi-ally to the payrolls, if not the output, of tho present season, and that gradually results upon which the oldest Inhabitant has been waiting for so long a time aro being achieved. Tho plant and properties of tho Overland Over-land Mining company at Sunshine, Camp Floyd mining district, eold bv Roclevcr Clarke under an order o tho District court, Tooelo county, were bid In bv Den-man Den-man Blanehard of Boston for ?3t,GO0, a figure that represents but a fraction of that expended In tho development of the company's territory, without reforonce to the sums incurred in Its equipment. Mr. Blanehard, on' whose bid tho hammer fell, represents those by whom the Overland company's bonds were held, and with these in possession another effortwlll no doubt bo made to redeem tho losses beneath be-neath which tho undertaking is burled. Mr. Clarke has demonstrated that thero is yet some hopo for those whoso moneys aro Involved, and the future must bo largely Influenced by this. |
